So @TheGreenParty now have 4 seats - as many as the revolting Reform party are forecast to get. So why in god’s name is @BBCNews rabbiting on about Reform still and not talking about extraordinary Green performance??

🚨 NEW: The Green Party have successfully won all four of their target seats, despite an original exit poll prediction of just two

Climate experts were increasingly saying that keeping heating below 1.5C is near impossible, yet it remains the global goal. So I asked hundreds of top IPCC scientists what they thought. What they said shocked even me…

Thrilled to share our new @DICE_Kent research on fire impacts - hot off the press🔥 in @PNASNews
Working with @BorneoNature & using 16-years of data, we examined the ecological impacts of fire and potential for recovery in Indonesia's tropical peatlands🧵1/10

Critically important forests have been erased in what is - ecologically - the blink of an eye. See how Ireland is among the most deforested countries in the world!

Pine martens caught on camera playing on children's swingset in Ardnamurchan, Scotland. The owner of the video, Les Humphreys, tells us this is a nightly occurence in his garden.

Please share if you might have Indonesian wildlife researchers in your network. We are recruiting an Indonesian student for a funded PhD working with me & colleagues at @UUBeta 🇳🇱, & @UGMYogyakarta 🇮🇩. Involves cool field & travel to 🇳🇱! 📷WWF Indonesia

Unimaginable numbers of children are dying because of the world’s failure to wage peace. Such a powerful reminder that we need a #CeasefireNow👇

1. Instead of backing down, it is time for Labour to face down the Tories and win the case for public investment in the climate transition - of £28bn and beyond.
Thread.

Mind blown today. Stumbled across this Pom-Pom Prominent today at Mt Kinabalu (on the way to rescue an Atlas moth!) and was gob-smacked by this remarkable deimatic behaviour as I bent down to pick it up. Never seen any threat display like it from a moth #MothsMatter

If you're into moss, trees and Pine martens you're in for 94 seconds of happy time.

I'm recruiting #Cornell students for research & educational resource development for 'Studying the Sounds of the Rainforest to Support Borneo's Communities' to explore how inclusive, sound-based research can improve understandings of relationships among people, nature, & place 🧵

🎮 Preliminary findings from the use of drones for species identification has demonstrated greater detection than traditional surveys as well as novel insights into species behaviours (not yet published)!
*top marks for great presentation slides 👏*

Big new study out today in @RSocPublishing #ProcB! We provide evidence for a wolf–beaver–forest trophic cascade, whereby wolves indirectly alter the structure & trajectory of boreal forests by acting as a selective pressure on beaver tree-cutting behavior! royalsocietypublishing.org/d…
ALT Conceptual diagram depicting how wolves indirectly alter the trajectory of forests by constraining the distance beavers forage from the safety of water. In a system without wolves (a), beavers can safely forage farther from water than they would be able to in a system with wolves (b). Consequently, the median length of feeding trails in a system with wolves is less than the median length of feeding trails in a system without wolves. In this study, we assumed the focal area most affected by beaver central-place foraging was restricted to the area of forest between the water's edge and the median length of a typical beaver trail (11.3–14.9 m). We assumed the median length of feeding trails where wolves killed beavers (23.1–28.8 m) represented the upper limit of potential median feeding trail lengths in a system without wolves. The area of forest between these two median feeding trail lengths represent the potential area of forest indirectly altered by wolves.

We'd just like to say a huge THANK YOU to everyone who supported our firefighting campaign last month 🔥👩🚒
We are delighted to report that, thanks to the bravery of community firefighting teams and coordination from local partners, habitat loss has been kept at a minimum (1/3)
